First the store. It has an incredible selection of fine wines from
around the world. Excellent French, German and Italian wines and of
course the great California wines.

I find the selection of Pinot Noir to be one of the best. Great
French Burgundy to the beautiful Russian River. Of course Oregon as
well, but I lean to the Russian River for my Pinot fix.

Wednesday and Saturday is when the have their regular wine tasting
events. Very casual atmosphere taste whats on the list walk around and
meet the staff.You will find them all very helpful and can make
difficult decisions easy.

The restaurant is rated among San Diegos best. While it is located
in a business park not typical of a restaurant of this caliber. You
will find the food to be fantastic, of course a great wine selection as
well. Allways rated highly in the Spctator.

This is a great local shop in Carlsbad, with two sides. Store front
and tasting room. The store front has a nice selection of wines for all
budgets. Its well layed out and easy to find what you are after.

The other side of the shop is a wine bar. With many by the glass
choices and some fantastic beers and espresso. Great cheese boards are
available in a variety of sizes.

The feature a couple of wine clubs, where members can come in and
taste as many as 18 wines and choose two. This typicall...

When this shop opened it was the place to be. A great selection of
wine and a great reserve room. Over time the people turned over and we
seemed to loose the ones we liked. Other shops opened in the area.

Well there is a new owner, he has done a great job of getting his
prices back to reality, his selection of wine is back to what it should
be. He has totally re-built the inside. It is now back on the list to
stop in and shop.

By far the largest selection on EVERYTHING in Southern California
that I have seen. No matter what your flavor, varietal, country you
name it they have it.

While it is larger than most, they still have an incredible staff
here. Actually buyers for Cabernet, Pinot, Chardonnay etc. While
shopping they ask if you have questions or if you are looking for
something specific. If its not out, they may have it out back.
